Abstract

An equation of state of the hard sphere fluid which is not analytical at the freezing density is proposed and tested. The nonanalytical term is based on the the classical nucleation theory and is able to capture the observed ``anomalous increase'' of pressure at high densities. It is combined with the virial expansion at low densities.
